The Most Detailed Infrared Map Of Our Galaxy Has Been Released, Featuring Over 1.5 Billion ObjectsHere we see, from left to right and top to bottom: NGC 3576, NGC 6357, Messier 17, NGC 6188, Messier 22 and NGC 3603. All of them are clouds of gas and dust where stars are forming, except Messier 22, which is a very dense group of old stars. The other are wispy clouds of gas with bright stars embedded between them.

Hubble Tension Solved? Astronomers Race To Save Standard Model Of CosmologyThis image shows many overlapping objects at various distances. They include foreground stars, galaxies in a galaxy cluster, and distorted background galaxies behind the galaxy cluster. The background of space is black. Thousands of small galaxies appear across the image. Their colors vary. Some are shades of orange, others are white. Most appear as fuzzy ovals, but a few have distinctive spiral arms.
